The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1082

Next year, he will open his own brothel, but he will push all the responsibility onto others.

He even used the life of the General Zhenguo's beloved woman as leverage.

This is absolutely outrageous, utterly despicable!

When Xu Tian revealed that General Zhenguo had been threatened by Prince Shen, General Zhenguo's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe that Xu Tian knew everything about it from beginning to end.

He thought that Xu Tian had been waiting for him outside and knew nothing about what was going on.

Unexpectedly, he let out a soft sigh.

Ultimately, we had no choice but to admit it.

“Your Highness is right. That brothel was originally opened by Prince Shen. He was afraid that the court would find a pretext to punish him, so he tricked me into signing that contract.”

"At the time, I had no idea what it was. I really thought it was just a profit-sharing contract, as Prince Shen said."

"I never imagined that I would be deceived by Prince Shen. It was actually a brothel, and I didn't know that until someone exposed it this time. I would probably have been kept in the dark forever."

The General who guarded the country looked extremely distressed and conflicted.

Xu Tian looked at him and felt particularly gloomy.

If it weren't for Prince Shen, none of this would have happened. Xu Tian decided that this time he would definitely teach that guy a lesson.

However, he was still somewhat unsure about the specifics.

"Your Majesty, please convict me of my crimes!"

Just as Xu Tian had this thought, General Zhenguo suddenly said these words to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi did not actually convict the General Zhenguo, but instead looked at Xu Tian beside him.

"Prince Shen currently has no leverage over anyone. If he were to act rashly, he might really..."

The General who guarded the country couldn't continue speaking. If Xiao Rou really died because of him, then he would be...

The General looked utterly helpless.

Only by admitting to the crime can I ensure that the person I love will not be implicated in anything.

Although Li Zhi was also very angry about this matter, if the General Zhenguo continued to refuse to admit that he was the owner of the brothel, he would be in trouble.

No one can save him, and not only that, he will also implicate Xu Tian, ​​who previously vouched for him.

Xu Tian remained expressionless, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

He was constantly scheming in his mind how he could turn the tide.

Because of this incident, Prince Shen became exceptionally cautious.

They couldn't find any evidence or anything at all.

Li Zhi could only temporarily continue to place the General Zhenguo under house arrest, and publicly declared that the matter had not yet been completely settled.

Although the General of the State has confessed his crime.

Of course, all they said was to reassure those waiting to hear the news.

This person was none other than Prince Shen.

His men were waiting outside, ready to know the moment the slightest news came from the capital.

Fortunately, his own people had already been placed in the palace.

News from inside the palace is naturally difficult for outsiders to obtain.

Only when there are people in the imperial city can they feel at ease.

It is known that the General Zhenguo admitted to running a brothel, but the Emperor merely placed him under house arrest in his general's residence.

This charge is far too lenient.

Even the people in the city unanimously believed that the emperor was clearly favoring the General Who Protects the Nation.

The people had long since turned their admiration for the general into disdain.

Xu Tiancai had just taken a walk around Chang'an City, and everywhere people were talking about this matter, with most believing that the General Zhenguo was indecent.

Just then, Xu Tian happened to see the carefree and happy Prince Shen.
